Inishowen-based Bren
Whelan from Wild Atlantic Climbing participated in
last year's course.
“The LYIT lecturers were all highly-skilled
professionals and the facilities on campus were
excellent. My learning opportunities were enhanced
through a wide range of expert guest speakers and
off-campus field trips to relevant destinations
during the course," he said.
"In my opinion, Donegal County Council and LYIT are
leading the way with a course that benefits a wide
range of people from across the county. I thoroughly
enjoyed the experience from start to finish and
would highly recommend this course."
